The use of computers, storage, networking and infrastructure to produce, process, manipulate, store, secure and share electronic data is known as information technology. First appearing in an article published in the Harvard Business Review in 1958, IT is considered a subset of ICT (Information communication technology). IT industry has progressed in leaps since its introduction. It has now become so integrated into our lives that it is impossible for us to think of a world without it.

Technology is the use of scientific knowledge for creating tools, processing actions and extracting of materials whether in industry or in our everyday lives. We apply technology in nearly all things that we do in our lives, we use technology at work, in communication, transportation, making food, extracting and securing information, running an organization and many more tasks, pretty much everywhere. Types of technology include information technology, banking technology, medical technology,

Information Security or InfoSec is the practice of protecting electronic data or information from unauthorized access. It is maintained by a set of strategies to manage the processes and tools to document, detect, prevent and counter threats to confidential digital information. These objectives ensure that data is protected in all of its forms and private information is not disclosed to unauthorized parties and grant access to the data when required to specific users.
